They used to be called the Management but found out that there were already bands called such so they simplified it to MGMT.

MGMT is short for "management" management is how its prounced about how they got the name not sure.
No, they used to be called The Management until around 2005 or 2006. Then they changed their band name to MGMT 'because there was another band called The Management'. #1 MGMT Fan :)
obviously of course. after all they are called MGMT. mostly stoners/potheads like me like the band MGMT. and i am telling the truth. look at their music videos... its a total stoner band
No, they are not. Empire of the Sun is an Australian electronic music duo that formed in 2008. The band is composed by Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore. MGMT, on the other hand, is an American alternative rock band formed by Andrew Vanwyngarden and Ben Goldwasser. #1 MGMT Fan :)
They used to be called 'The Management' and MGMT is just a shortened version of that word. ^ That is incorrect. In this video..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnbxydgNfgk .......it is hard to hear, but at 5:55 band member Andrew VanWyngarden says "MGMT stands for Make Great Music Today." He was just joking about that. It does stand for The Management. It stands for "Makes Good Mushroom Trips"
They are two out of 5 members of the band MGMT.
